Does it support different types of code targets?

Absolutely. It works with specific file paths, class components, database models, and API endpoints across your entire project structure.

Can I use this skill for API endpoint changes?

Yes, you can target specific API endpoints to see exactly which frontend components or backend services rely on that specific route.

How does Impact Analyzer determine if a change is safe?

It scans your codebase for dependencies, usage patterns of specific APIs, and existing test coverage to provide a visual risk level and a detailed migration checklist.

Why should I use this before refactoring?

It prevents unexpected regressions by identifying hidden dependencies and 'blind spots' in your test suite that might be impacted by your changes.

Is Impact Analyzer part of the SourceAtlas plugin?

Yes, it is a specialized skill within the SourceAtlas suite designed to help developers navigate and understand complex codebases quickly using AI.
